  • Section 12, Watershed Action Plans
    SECTION 12, WATERSHED ACTION PLANS 12.0 WATERSHED ACTION PLANS 12.1 Introduction The Third Term Permits have, with varying degrees of specificity, required the Permittees to develop and implement a watershed-based approach to urban stormwater management to complement the established jurisdictional-based approaches. In the area of the County under the jurisdiction of the San Diego Regional Board, Watershed Urban Runoff Management Plans (WURMPs) termed DAMP/Watershed Action Plans1 (WAPs), have been prepared for each of the six principal watersheds. In the Santa Ana Regional Board area of the County, which has a long history of watershed planning focused on the Newport Bay Watershed, the Permittees were required to update Appendix N of the DAMP to reflect the implementation measures and schedules related to the fecal coliform TMDL. Watershed management is the term used for the approach to water quality planning that places an emphasis on the watershed (the area draining into a river system, ocean or other body of water through a single outlet) as the planning area and looks to solutions to problems that cut across programs and jurisdictions. In Orange County, these efforts focus additional effort on the highest priority water quality constituents of concern in each watershed. The approach taken to develop the DAMP/WAPs establishes the jurisdictional DAMP/LIPs and the DAMP/WAPs as the principal policy and program documents for two separate, but nonetheless similar and highly interdependent, water quality planning processes targeting the control of pollutants in urban runoff (see Section 3.0, 2007 DAMP). In a number of watersheds these efforts are supportive of a third planning process that is focused on achieving broader objectives such as watershed habitat restoration and connectivity rather than specific water quality outcomes.

  • Watershed Summaries
    Appendix A: Watershed Summaries Preface California’s watersheds supply water for drinking, recreation, industry, and farming and at the same time provide critical habitat for a wide variety of animal species. Conceptually, a watershed is any sloping surface that sheds water, such as a creek, lake, slough or estuary. In southern California, rapid population growth in watersheds has led to increased conflict between human users of natural resources, dramatic loss of native diversity, and a general decline in the health of ecosystems. California ranks second in the country in the number of listed endangered and threatened aquatic species. This Appendix is a “working” database that can be supplemented in the future. It provides a brief overview of information on the major hydrological units of the South Coast, and draws from the following primary sources: • The California Rivers Assessment (CARA) database (http://www.ice.ucdavis.edu/newcara) provides information on large-scale watershed and river basin statistics; • Information on the creeks and watersheds for the ESU of the endangered southern steelhead trout from the National Marine Fisheries Service (http://swr.ucsd.edu/hcd/SoCalDistrib.htm); • Watershed Plans from the Regional Water Quality Control Boards (RWQCB) that provide summaries of existing hydrological units for each subregion of the south coast (http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/rwqcbs/index.html); • General information on the ecology of the rivers and watersheds of the south coast described in California’s Rivers and Streams: Working

  • Section 5.8 Hydrology, Drainage, and Water Quality
    Section 5.8 Hydrology, Drainage, and Water Quality SECTION 5.8 HYDROLOGY, DRAINAGE, AND WATER QUALITY This section describes the existing hydrological and water quality conditions within the City of Buena Park. The potential impacts that could result from implementation of the proposed General Plan Update are analyzed, and where significant impacts are identified, mitigation measures are recommended to avoid or reduce these impacts to a less than significant level. This section includes information contained in the Hydrology Impact and Water Quality Assessment prepared by RBF Consulting (February 2010) (Appendix F). 5.8.1 EXISTING SETTING GROUNDWATER The City relies on two major water supply sources, which include imported water from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) and local groundwater from the Orange County Groundwater Basin, managed by the Orange County Water District (OCWD). The groundwater basin receives water via the Santa Ana River. Each year OCWD sets a basin production percentage (BPP) for the agencies that pump from the basin. The BPP is the ratio of water produced from the groundwater to all water produced by the agency. The BPP provides a limit on how much each agency can pump from the Orange County Groundwater Basin without paying a penalty. According to the City of Buena Park 2005 Water Master Plan Study Final Report (Water Master Plan) (February 2007), the City’s basin pumping percentage is 66 percent and is anticipated to increase to the historical value of 75 percent. However, water supply conditions have changed over recent years and according to the City’s Public Works Department, the current BPP is 62 percent and the BPP is not anticipated to rise above the current rate for a number of years.

  • City of Laguna Niguel Parks and Recreation Commission Agenda Item
    CITY OF LAGUNA NIGUEL PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION AGENDA ITEM TO: Parks and Recreation Commission FROM: Cathy Angstadt, Recreation Supervisor DATE: December 14, 2020 SUBJECT: Trails in Laguna Niguel User Information RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Parks & Recreation Commission review and provide feedback on the Trails in Laguna Niguel draft pamphlet. BACKGROUND An extensive trail system exists within Laguna Niguel providing recreational access to major parks throughout the City and adjacent communities. Many of the trails offer scenic ridgelines along the eastern and western perimeter of the City with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean surrounded by hillsides and valleys. Several trails traverse large open space canyons, including the Salt Creek Regional Park and the Laguna Niguel Regional Park. The trails serve a variety of users, including hikers, runners, mountain bikers, and equestrians. The equestrian element of the trail system provides equestrian access from the Nellie Gail community in Laguna Hills to the Laguna Niguel Regional Park, Salt Creek Regional Park, Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park, and horse stables in San Juan Capistrano. Before City incorporation, multiple developers owned the land. The County approved and ensured trail establishment and development required for property expansion. As home developments increased, trails were added to enhance recreational features and access for its future property owners. According to each development track map, trail maintenance, ownership, and easement rights were either accepted or not accepted by the County for each trail. Although the County of Orange still owns and maintains much of the trail system within City boundaries, other sections are owned and maintained by local homeowner associations and by the City of Laguna Niguel.
